Hello Seb et Lolo

Today it had its maiden. Raymond (Fotor) made a video, we did only 3 flights, I liked to change some throws and mixers in my transmiter at home.

Thanks Sebastian and I am waiting for a good opportunity for the maiden flight.
Hopefully I can fly it without slopes!

Bonjour a tous,

Sheeting with Diacov (that I had lying around) was done quickly, I had just enough.

Bonjour a tous,

Sanding and finishing, a tedious job, always reveals the imperfections, you start to see things you didn't see before....
I did make a kind of handle on the fuselage, so that it ...

Hi Sebastian,

The pilot hasn't got broad shoulders, he will get a big head and the plane is very narrow!

Bonjour a tous,

The Hjordis is now making good progress. Spent an afternoon preparing all the actuation rods . I sheeted the wing center section and made a hatch in it, to get to the connections. ...

Danke fur die Info Thomas.
Schon, wie sagt man dass, die Zeit kommt wieder zu leben

Hi Sebastian,

Yes it feels just rigid enough. Calcullongeron says it could withstand 20G. That should be enough!

Amicalement,

Vincent (DB)

I go on with the Hjordis,

After the wing was sheeted, it feels pleasantly sturdy and very torsionally stiff. Now the ailerons. To get them torsionally stiff enough, I wanted to make a small D box f ...

Bonjour a tous,

Moving on to the wing. Given the choice of airfoil and the fact that the plywood is not varnished, I decided to sheet the top and bottom separately. First the bottom: I planed and s ...

Hello Sebastian,

Yes. it took some changes, but now it looks right Very Happy

The wings will be covered with plywood just till the rear spar

Bonjour a tous,

Because there was not enough space for the aileron servo at the location of the aileron, it had to be moved closer to the wing root. I decided to place it under the aperture of the ...

Now I could assemble the wings

Bonjour a tous,

Now that the fuselage is more or less finished, I want to build the wing. The choice of profile has already been posted extensively on the Dutch MBF, thanks again for all the info! ...

Thanks Sebastian Very Happy

You put the finger on the spot, practical enginering, I like that.

A wonderful story about the Hjordis, it was written in the Sailplane and Glider.
Thomas provided me the ...

Bonjour a tous,

The cockpit, or rather the canopy, is the “face” of the model. Unfortunately, I overlooked something while taking the measurements. I had already rebuilt the canopy frame twice, but ...

Hello Pat,

Congratulations with your first flights [clap]

It surely looks great (and it is also great!)

Hello Sebastian,

Yes I tried the "PVA ironing" method on my King Kite, it works well (with thin ply). But I guess I was in the cyano glueing mood Laughing

It surely was a remarkable gli ...

Bonjour a tous,

Now I had to sheet the upper half. I found that quite difficult, especially applying pressure on the glue. Finally, with a few drops of cyano, I glued 3 X 3 slats onto a prepared p ...

Hello Sebastian,

You are right about the weather! Very Happy

.
I surely go on building, I guess you do the same!

Vincent (DB)

Hello everyone,

What I always find difficult with building is that one thing has to be done first, and then another, and sometimes that's a puzzle.
To make the skeg, I had to sheet the fuselage, ...

Oui Sebastian, cést vraiment développable Very Happy

Amicalemant,

Vincent (DB)

Danke Thomas [clap]

Danke Thomas,

Ich bin erstaunt Very Happy

. Schone bilder, da kann Ich doch die Cockpit Haube gut machen! [clap]

Vincent (DB)

Bonjour a tous,

I went on with the fuselage, the two stringers on sides are on the construction level so on the 10 x 10 mm slats. With these stringers in place and the center of the formers on the ...

Hi Sebastian,

Thanks and yes it is nice software, it took me some time to work with it Laughing
